at Wake Forest Medical School announces open
positions for

Postdoctoral Training in
Multisensory Processes

We seek strong candidates for postdoctoral
training funded by an NIH T32 Training
Grant. The training program provides a rich
collaborative research environment that fosters
interdisciplinary approaches to understanding
how the brain integrates information from
multiple senses to produce perception and
adaptive behavior. Candidates with direct
experience as well as those in related felds are
encouraged to apply. Trainees will have access to
any of 9 laboratories using human subjects and/
or a variety of animal models (rodents-primates)
with approaches spanning molecular/cellular to
perceptual/behavioral. Fellowships are awarded
on a competitive basis.

Applications including a current curriculum vitae
or nominations should be sent to the Training
Grant Director: Dr.BarryE.St ein, bestein@
wakehealth.edu, or to its Co-Directors: Dr.
Terrence Stanford, stanford@wakehealth.
